Reborn, she saved the boy who was bullied to death

Chapter 442: Surprises always come unexpectedly

Chi Yunning's gaze lingered on the hairpin for a moment, a meaningful smile playing on her lips. "Xiao Qingqing, did you know? This hairpin isn't just decorated with ordinary jadeite, but top-grade imperial green jadeite. Its texture is so pure, its color so rich, it's considered the finest glass-like jadeite. Its value is incomparable to ordinary items. To say it's priceless is no exaggeration."

Shang Qing's eyes widened suddenly when he heard this. He did not doubt Chi Yunning's evaluation at all, and his heart beat faster.

Her hand unconsciously raised up, and her fingertips gently touched the hairpin, feeling the warmth and coolness from the ancient ore.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze, Shang Qing's heart was churning with thoughts.

She never imagined that this seemingly simple yet loving gift actually held such amazing value.

This was not just a material gift, but also Ji Xun's unique preference and affection for her.

"Your boyfriend is really good to you. You know, at the time, many parties wanted to buy it, but it refused to sell. Of course, I was one of the bidders."

"If they knew that you were wearing that rare, top-grade imperial green jadeite so casually in your hair as an ordinary decoration, they would probably be so angry that they would spit blood."

Chi Yunning's mind flashed with the exaggerated expressions of those jewelry industry bosses after they learned the truth, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up into an increasingly bright smile.

There was a hint of playfulness and complacency in that smile, as if silently saying, "Things in life are unpredictable, and surprises always come unexpectedly."

Min Zhiheng, who was sitting not far away, was shocked beyond words.

He never imagined that the top-grade imperial green jadeite that his mother had been longing for was actually bought by Ji Xun.

Now, this piece of jade has not only appeared, but is also displayed in an almost playful way.

What is shocking is that instead of selling it at a high price, Ji Xun gave it to Shang Qing.

It is also specially crafted into a unique trinket based on her spontaneous and imaginative paintings.

Although this jewelry looks casual, it contains the perfect fusion of priceless treasures and pure creativity. Min Zhiheng couldn't help but sigh at Ji Xun's pampering and respect for Shang Qing.

At this moment, Min Zhiheng's evaluation of Ji Xun quietly climbed to a whole new height.

He realized that Ji Xun was not only excellent in all aspects, but now also possessed extraordinary treasure appraisal skills and extraordinary courage, as well as a true heart that was not moved by the world.

Willing to do such a seemingly absurd but extremely affectionate act for the one you love.

Such a Ji Xun made Min Zhiheng curious, and also made him think to himself: Shang Qing has really good vision.

Shang Qing was completely stunned.

She liked the jade very much at that time and asked Ji Xun what it was and whether it was expensive.

Ji Xun's answer was calm and natural. He only talked about jadeite, which was not expensive.

Shang Qing casually sketched out a series of small ornaments, and Ji Xun took all of them away.

When I saw them again later, every drawing had become a real object.

Each of these small ornaments is cleverly inlaid with the eye-catching imperial green jadeite.

Those small and exquisite works sparkle with a low-key and luxurious luster in the interweaving of light and shadow, as if every touch of green contains the secrets of the ancient forest and the rhythm of life.

In addition to this precious imperial green jadeite, her other series of drawings are also made in the same way.

Of course, she has several kinds of these small accessories.

It's just other gemstones.

Various gemstones, colorful, are like the brightest stars in the night sky, each telling a different story.

Shang Qing didn't say it, because she really felt that if she said it, it would be suspected of showing off.

After all, she was just a freshman and had never been exposed to the vastness and depth of the jewelry world.

As for the concepts of price and value, I am completely clueless and don't understand anything at all.

Chi Yunning, the woman who always warms people's hearts with her gentle smile, noticed Shang Qing's silence.

There was a glimmer of understanding in her eyes, and a softer smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she could see into the most delicate emotions in people's hearts.

"Xiao Qingqing," she whispered softly, her voice as gentle as a spring breeze, "Actually, I admire not only your talent, but even more so your rare humility and innocence. In this world full of temptations, it's truly rare to maintain your original intentions. Those gems, no matter how valuable, have been given new life and meaning through your designs. That's what makes them so precious."

Chi Yunning's words were like a ray of warm sunshine, penetrating the mist in Shang Qing's heart and making her feel unprecedented encouragement and affirmation.

Seeing Shang Qing remained silent, Chi Yunning smiled gently, "Xiao Qingqing, actually, I'm not only a painter, but also a jewelry designer. Painting is just a hobby, but jewelry design is my true career."

Shang Qing's heartbeat gradually returned to its normal rhythm. She slowly raised her eyes and met Chi Yunning's face, which was filled with gentleness, kindness and expectation.

The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the half-closed curtains, dappling onto her shoulders, casting a soft and mysterious glow on this renowned designer in the industry.

"Shang Qing," Chi Yunning's voice was soft yet firm. Every word was like a carefully crafted work of art, gently touching Shang Qing's heart. "Would you like to join my team and explore the endless possibilities of design with me?"

These words were like a spring breeze or the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating a corner of longing in Shang Qing's heart.

Shang Qing unconsciously clenched her fingers, feeling mixed emotions. She knew that this moment might be the turning point in her life trajectory.

However, Shang Qing shook her head. Knowing her own level, she quickly declined, "Auntie Ning, I... I haven't studied professional design. Those are just random sketches I made in my spare time. They're not even worthy of being presented in a formal setting."

There was a hint of insecurity in her voice, a sense of retreat from the unknown, and a hint of struggle that came from longing for dreams but not daring to touch them.

Seeing this, Chi Yunning smiled gently.

She slowly stood up and gently took Shang Qing's smooth little hand, her eyes full of encouragement and understanding.

"Shang Qing, I just took a close look at your hairpin design. Although it reveals a hint of immaturity and naiveté, it is precisely this unpolished purity that imbues your design with an indescribable aura and vitality."

Chi Yunning's words were like sweet rain, nourishing Shang Qing's dry heart.

"Do you know how rare it is to maintain such raw creativity in this fast-paced, high-pressure industry?"
